WASHINGTON, May 2, 2026 — AT&T is celebrating its ten-year anniversary of Access from AT&T with a $25 discount from AT&T Internet Air, the company’s 5G broadband service.
“This expansion using Internet Air matters because in many communities, wired home internet is not yet available, and this gives families a new way to get online using the fast and reliable AT&T 5G network,” said Josh Goodell, vice president of AT&T Broadband and Converged Products.
Access from AT&T is the company’s home internet service for low-income families. Families who qualify under 18 federal assistance programs are also eligible for Internet Air, “with no drilling or technician required,” the company said.
AT&T Internet Air normally costs $60 a month, or $47 with an unlimited mobile plan. The new $25 discount covers roughly 83% of the now‑defunct Affordable Connectivity Program’s $30 monthly discount.
